 "Duplicate without user-selected canonical" errors in Google Search Console


  • Duplicate content within a website or document: Instances of identical or very similar content appearing multiple times within the same website or document, potentially causing confusion for search engines and users.
  • Duplicate content across multiple websites: Instances of the same content appearing on different websites, potentially raising concerns about plagiarism or copyright infringement.
  • Technical duplicate content issues: Situations where website code or structure unintentionally creates duplicate content, such as through URL parameters or different page versions.


To resolve this issue, you can follow these steps:

1.    Determine the primary version of the content: Review the
 different versions
 of the content and decide which one should be considered the primary 
version. This should be the version that you want to appear 
in search results and that you want search engines to prioritize.


2.    Add a canonical tag to the primary version:
 Once you have determined which version is the primary version, 
add a canonical tag to the HTML code of that page. 
The canonical tag should point to the URL 
of the primary version and indicate that it is 
the preferred version of the content. 
Example is 

<link rel="canonical" href="https://domain-name /xyz.html">


3.    Remove or redirect duplicate versions: 
After adding the canonical tag to the primary version,
 remove or redirect any duplicate versions of the content. 
This can be done by deleting the duplicate pages or
 setting up redirects to the primary version.


4.    Request re-indexing: Once you have made these changes, 
use the URL Inspection tool in Google Search Console to
 request re-indexing of the primary version. 
This will help ensure that search engines recognize the
 canonical tag and prioritize the primary version of the content.
By following these steps, you can resolve the 
"Duplicate without user-selected canonical" issue in
 Google Search Console and ensure that search engines 
are properly indexing and displaying the primary 
version of your content.
